Maxwell House great marketing campaign

I don’t know if you ever heard about Maxwell House, all I know is that I first heard about them was just this morning.

2 girls visited the office offering cups of Maxwell House American coffee and taking pictures of people drinking their beverage, a typical marketing campaign if you see what I mean.

One of the ladies reached my office and wanted to take a picture of me with the cup and I politely refused. So she looked at me and told me “It is OK sir, if you don’t want your picture taken you can still have your Nescafe !!!”
